    My "Boardwalk Empire" Borsalino...

    Well I'd say you look the part! Congrats on the paying gig. You'll have to keep the Lounge posted on when Boardwalk Empire airs - with fedoras involved I'm sure there's a few folks around here that might tune in to see the show.

    I love the Fed IV!!

    And if you haven't looked at Triple F's link on how to bash an Indy hat you're missing out. It's got great pictures with narrative, and he does a great job on the hat. Hats off to Triple F!

    My "Boardwalk Empire" Borsalino...

    Interesting - I think I could see you breaking a few legs or arms with a fedora like that one! Let me guess, in the script you work for the Sanitation Department? So anything on the liner or sweatband? Is it a Borsalino?

    Panama Hat Thread

    Aureliano, somehow I don't think I could make Sean Connery's wavy brim look as good as he makes it look.

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    :offtopic: but maybe germane to the current divergence, re: Wineguy's recent Borsalino experience. When would you leave negative feedback?

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Anyone care to enlighten me on a Society Club? Bakers44, I like the shape, color, ribbon - well, just about everything about that hat, and you wear it well!

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    BobC, everyone's coveting the Whippet, but I think you scored on the Marathon. Both are nice hats. Nice trolling...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Alchemy, it's a nice looking hat. For the experts to chime in on the age you'll be better off posting sweat and liner photos as well.

    Mario, that Mayser is a beauty - I like the raw edge as well. Nice work! :eusa_clap

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Looking good, Michaelshane! It looks like a center dent with no pinches, but I can't tell for sure.

    I love that one, RBH - it's a great looking hat!

    Reblocked and ribboned - first time

    If you can solve the other problems, (getting the ribbon curved correctly and the bow flat) it sounds like a good idea. You can have one hat, but change up the look in seconds. For the record, I know you have more than one hat, Buler ;) And by the way, I miss Eva in your avatar.

    What are the stereotypes associated with different hats?

    Still Off Topic: Well Doggy, we may have to solicit some advice from HP Gene - he has lids for wet-sawing bricks, serious dirty yard work, and more than likely any other job you could imagine!

    What are the stereotypes associated with different hats?

    Doggy Darb, welcome to the Fedora Lounge! I'm sure no offense is taken to your genuine comments and contribution to this thread. :offtopic: Since you've taken the time to join up in order to post, do you wear hats other than ball caps when doing dirty chores?

    How Long Is Too Long?

    It probably does depend on the price. If money is no object, and that may be the case for someone who is able to contemplate acquiring a high-end custom hat, then why not order the hat and forget about it? If you have children, did you notice how quickly they grow up? Six months, a year will...

    Help with repair to a straw hat

    Just a question: What would Graham at Optimo or Art do to repair this type of problem?

    Reblocked and ribboned - first time

    No one's bitten yet, so I'll wade in with some feedback. That's a creative way of doing the ribbon treatment. I'm not sure what the drawbacks are, but you may be able to tell us after a while! There must be a reason they're usually sewn on! Your equipment seemed to handle the blocking with...

    Just got a Mint 1930's Stetson 20 Sovereign

    Why, this is most cruel, Metro. It's like ringing a bell around Pavlov's dog. We need pictures of this excellent purchase.
